It wasn't just that though, there were numerous fouls against us that he didn't give, and virtually every time we got close to their players the whistle went. He gave them a free kick from 50 yards away when it looked a foul to us (on Sterling I think) after a quick break.yep thought he was shit ! Let sideshow Bob charge into Dias without a booking
I notice him when he doesn't give blatant fouls, I'm not bothered what the score is, I thought that we had recently become cleverer with the referee's giving them less chance to affect the result, today we gave them nothing to cheat with near our goal, but as you say at 1-0 they have more chance, and just one could easily be a penalty (assuming of course they can get into the penalty area).people only noticed Moss because we weren't 3/4-0 up in 10 minutes like we easily could have been, let him into the game and over the years we still don't seem to have incorporated that into our mentality and become ruthless about it.
every ref is at it every game, whether it's blind Andre being blind and standing in the way, or Tierney letting off Spurs with foul after foul against us yet Pawson was card happy with them today for the same sorts of offences. We know what they're like and when we have such presentable chances to be ruthless and kill games early and don't take them it's on us, we know the game, we know we play 14 most weeks and by now we have to have developed the mentality to deal with it.I notice him when he doesn't give blatant fouls, I'm not bothered what the score is, I thought that we had recently become cleverer with the referee's giving them less chance to affect the result, today we gave them nothing to cheat with near our goal, but as you say at 1-0 they have more chance, and just one could easily be a penalty (assuming of course they can get into the penalty area).
There were 5 or 6 free kicks not given to us in the first 30 minutes alone, and it happens many a week, yet our opponents get every dubious one.The only serious mistake was not punishing the foul by Luiz on Dias, premeditated and at least a yellow.
Maybe that’s how bad it has got that Moss was a long way from the worstThere were 5 or 6 free kicks not given to us in the first 30 minutes alone, and it happens many a week, yet our opponents get every dubious one.
